It’s been an eventful week for Nebraska, as a fan revolt has reached a near-boiling point. Coach Rhule’s response? Let’s move some coaches to the press box…not exactly the most confidence-inspiring move.
Illinois and Nebraska both sit at 5-3, with Nebraska (as we are all painfully aware) coming off three straight gut-punch losses, while Illinois - under the steady hand of coach Bret Bielema - has won three straight.
The question is, are these two teams at the same point, headed in completely separate directions?
Bob says yes, Jay says no. A house divided!
Momentum and self-belief are powerful motivators for a team.
